MLH and beeje hit the nail on the head. Tire pressure varies with the ambient air temperature. I filled my tires to 100 psi on a day it was 46 degrees. A few days later it was -1. I had set the TPMS minimum to 85 psi and it set off a warning. The tires were 83 to 85 psi. Once on the road the pressure climbed back up. Once I arrived in FL and the temps in the 60s the cold air pressure was in the 104 psi range.
Also check out the VIAIR 400P-RV Automatic Portable Compressor. A small kit that fits in the truck tool box and will quickly fill your tires to 100 + psi.
